It’s been a slow week back after Spring Break. I can’t be the only one who wishes they were still laying on a beach or swimming in a pool instead of in another long math class. Here are 5 ways you can keep the Spring Break feeling alive, without leaving Clemson!
1. Get Your Tan On
Spray tans and tanning beds are fine and all, but there’s nothing like getting a tan the natural way. Spend your spare time between class in the ampitheatre or even on Y beach soaking up some vitamin D. Take advantage of this sunshine while it lasts because you never know what to expect with our weather nowadays.
2. Read a Book
Admit it, you haven’t read a book for fun in ages. Reading is the perfect way to waste time in the sun while tanning. I promise it is way more fun than your textbook. Pick up a book that interests you and escape reality and the impending doom that is final’s week in a month. Don’t know what to read? Stop by Cooper and wander around until something catches your eye.
3. Binge Watch Netflix
Miss that feeling of no responsibilties? Spend some time forgetting about the ones you have now by watching your favorite Netflix show. Whether it’s the new season of House of Cards or Friends reruns, take time to relax. Paint your nails, check out everyone else’s adventures, text the group chat saying you want to go back, and just relax.
4. Pamper Your Skin
Spend some time in the sun? Treat your skin right by exfoliating with a homemade scrub. We recommend making a coffee scrub to exfoliate, brighten, and energize your skin. Coffee scrubs are also great at getting rid of stretch marks and dryness. It might just help your treasured tan stay longer!
5. Hang out with your friends on a week day
Missing all the crazy adventures you had with your BFFs? Take a break from studying and hang out with your girls. Doesn’t matter if it’s a Tuesday and it doesn’t have to be anything crazy! Go grab a slice of pizza or watch a movie.
Spring break 2016 will be missed, but the happiness does not have to be completely lost. Spend some time focusing on yourself and let go of some stress. Clemson is way prettier than Dyrtle and PCB anyway!
